Is Italian mastiff a good option as a pet for old people?

Hi, the Italian mastiff you chose will be a good choice to gift to your grandparents. The dog is very robust, is easier to maintain and has less health problems as compared to other breeds. In temperament it is cool and gentle, also a good choice if you have kids around in your house. It is a loyal companion and easy to train. While you buy one, make sure it is not already infected with some skin or bone problems, also try to adopt a young one, so it can be trained more easily, but in case you are buying it as a guard dog, you better go for a big one. Your grandparents will be happy with your choice.
